I'm worried about how many Americans will get an eating disorder trying to copy people on Rednote

I've been looking for healthy recipes on Rednote because I'm trying to lose weight and they have good food, but as someone who has dealt with anorexia, a lot of people on there are glorifying it and saying it's healthy.

And I know that's normal for them which is fine, I'm not gonna go onto their app and tell them what to do. But I'm worried about the Americans because I know our way of eating is different and our calories are different because our food is basically poison.

I remember being young and impressionable and seeing all these pretty, thin people body checking and showing their meal logs with 200 calories a day on them and thinking I was losing weight wrong because I wasn't doing the same thing.

I see Americans in their comments asking how they can be as thin as them when our bodies are made differently. Skinny for us is still fat to them. Thin for them is hospital worthy for us. And I can't say anything in the comments to try and save the Americans from going down that path because I don't want to get banned for going against their norm

Even Chinese food can be high in oil, salt, and sugar. You should enjoy all foods in moderation and balance, and make exercise a regular part of your life. True beauty comes from health, not from comparing yourself to others.

Many foreigners in China try Chinese food, and compared to high-sugar foods in the United States, Chinese diet is indeed much healthier. Of course, some foods are not healthy, but they are so delicious that you still want to try them. You can try making a simple Chinese food and try it out to know if it really suits you.

Beside diet, most Chinese taking public transport. That mean they have to walk for the last 500m end per trip. everyday. That minimum 1km to work and return. Not to say most of them have to stand during peak hour for buses and subways.

Making the Jump from TikTok to Rednote(Xiaohongshu)? Here’s What You Need to Know

So you’re thinking about switching (or at least dabbling) from TikTok to **Rednote** (aka Xiaohongshu)? Here’s a quick rundown on what to expect and how to adapt: 1. **Different Vibe** * **TikTok** is all about short, snappy videos—dances, trends, and memes. * **Rednote** leans more toward lifestyle tips, product reviews, and personal stories. Think mini-blogs rather than just quick clips. 2. **Less is More—or Is It?** * On **TikTok**, you can go viral with a 15-second masterpiece. * On **Rednote**, people actually read captions and appreciate detailed posts. Don’t be afraid to write a bit more and share personal insights. 3. **Engage with the Community** * Responding to comments is key on both platforms, but **Rednote** users expect a friendlier, more helpful approach. Focus on real interaction rather than just racking up views. 4. **Use Relevant Hashtags & Keywords** * **TikTok** hashtags can be trendy and fleeting. * **Rednote** hashtags and keywords should be more targeted, especially if you’re reviewing products or sharing how-to tips. 5. **Be Ready for Culture Shifts** * The **Rednote** audience often loves beauty, travel, fashion, and “real-life” hacks. * If you’re pivoting from dance challenges, consider experimenting with lifestyle or review content to fit the platform’s style. 6. **Quality Over Quantity** * While **TikTok** can reward frequent posting, **Rednote** might favor fewer, well-thought-out posts that really resonate. High-quality visuals and genuine storytelling go a long way. Got questions about Rednote? Drop ’em below—always happy to help a fellow content creator make the jump!

The ban isn't really about privacy concerns

Why exactly? You and me know why America is banning tiktok... They can't control the narrative their like they do with Facebook or Instagram YouTube. etc The genocide in Gaza was being shown in its full without any kind of censorship... And daddy israel doesn't like that so the AIPAC who's holding the American politicians by the balls... Forced them into banning the app.... It's not about privacy or any of that.... Remember edward Snowden.? I rest my case.

Y'all know why Trump suddenly became "pro-TikTok" right?

Say it with me....because he and his oligarch buddies are getting worried Americans are waking up to the truth about the anti-China propaganda BS in Red Note and will either demand better conditions or go full socialist.
